- In this video we start our Bronco for the first time after its full restoration. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us anytime at jasonandjoniebuilds@gmail.com
That priceless smile after 1st start up is great to see. Congratulations!
Thank you, sir. That was a great day.
Congratulations!!! Great job! Now let the shake down begin
Oh yes.... The question is how many issues do we find. We have chased a few electrical gremlins already but not too bad.
So cool! Congratulations, can’t wait to hear more about gremlins.
Lol...there were some gremlins for sure. Thanks
The Lunati Voodoo sounds great out the tailpipe! I’m glad I bought that cam too.
Yes sir. Once I am happy with the tune I will bring the idle down a bit. It should sound even better. Thanks
So that colored Spaghetti came in handy. Sounds great, especially compared to my 4 cly. Kia Sportage. soon you'll be driving it everywhere. God Bless
I will drive my girls to Sonic for Ice Cream. My youngest remembers that about our last restoration.
What a great day! Congrats!
Yes sir! It all went very well. Thank God.
Congratulations!!!
Thanks!
Well done team JJB!! Soooo awesome.
Thanks!
The sound of life and the grin from ear to ear of success …..Those push on style connectors for the fuel and oil can need to be squeezed down some to make good connections. Congrats.
Yes sir! I will check those connectors again. I used eye connectors and nuts on them. It may be a grounding issue.
That smile on his face looks like Jason on first night of marriage. lol Congrats and many more smiles to come I'm sure. Doug
Thank you Doug! It was a long time coming for sure.
Congratulations! I just got a 66 Roadster so I will definitely have some videos to watch!
Thanks! Good luck on your '66.
Way to go team Jason & Jonie
Thanks!
Looks great, sounds great ! Can't wait to see you driving it !
Thanks Bob!
How exciting! Great job guys
Thanks!
Bravo! Thanks for sharing this build with us. You've helped me a time or two for sure. I hope to one day be able to restore mine to the same level you have done.
Thanks Jeff! We have enjoyed the build and really appreciate the Bronco community.
Absolutely beautiful truck. Your videos are excellent and inspiring to some of us that are doing this for the first time. I have learned so much from your build.
Thank you! I hope we have helped a little bit.
CONGRATS......
Thank you!
Awesome! It won't get any easier to sleep with it running and no brakes! too much anticipation to get it moving!
So true! Thanks
Hoooorah !!!! Finally.....so glad to watch this journey on your bronco ! It's a great feeling when it comes to life....I did the same thing with my family on start up day on our 67....looking forward to more bronco content !!!!
Thank you for following along. It is a family affair at our house for sure.
Just started mine yesterday. 302 with edelbrock performer kit and a new 650 avs. Ran good after we plugged the air leak at the back of the intake and carb. Went with two small spal fans in front for cooling and eliminated the engine fan.
Awesome Paul! I am sure you know all too well about our excitement. Congrats to you on your build.
Congrats guys! I can feel your excitement, not sure I would had the patience to shoot a video being so close… Thanks for sharing your build with us all. If I ever find a Bronco to follow your lead, your video’s will help guide the way. Thanks again!
Thank you very much! We appreciate you following along.
Congrats. Looking forward to hearing about your wiring hints. I am in the middle of a painless rewire as well on the turd. Not sure why it seems so intimidating.
Kevin, hopefully I can offer a few bits of information that might help. It wasn't that bad just took time getting everything in its place. Good luck.
So awesome! I was having some issues last week with mine - turned out to be the interface between the seat and the steering wheel - just an FYI, they have to have fuel in them to run correctly 😁. That sounds fantastic!
LOL...Thanks Rob. Yes fuel does do the trick most of the time.
congrats looks fantastic. My wife say´s you have lost weight. haha
Thanks! Not sure I have lost weight though. Lol
@Jason & Jonie Builds Well, hard work on the Bronco often results in fewer meals. Come to think of it, she newer says stuff like that to me. Lol. Maybe I should be out in the garage more 🤔😅
Our best wishes on great Bronco build
Thank you for being one of our consistent watchers. Nice folks like you is why we have kept the channel going.
Such a long journey but, what an outcome! Y'all should be very proud of your build. It looks fantastic. Well done....On a side note: you think you could send me pictures of how you routed your ac lines. I have the same system. Looking forward to seeing it and you guys in Panama City!
And you looked like a big kid on Christmas morning...LOL
@@normbrooks1488 I was a good feeling for sure.
Thanks Norm! I will get those pictures for you. I owe you info on the alternator but I could not find a part number on the one I am using. See you in PC!
I know you added the ice stuff but have you ever used Water Wetter?? I hear it is good too. I am having trouble with my 77 running hot and Nick at NE told me to use it. Also I think its funny you and I had the same grin on our faces when our broncos fired up for the very first time!!!😂😂
I think I used water wetter too. I believe they do the same thing. Yes, there is nothing like that sound foe the first time. Thanks!
Congrats it's all coming together. Now which of your daughters get to drive it when they get their license?
Well that is a good question....we will have to see. Lol
That motor sounds great! I can't wait to hear about the wiring installation. What show is it that ya'll are getting it ready for?
Thanks! We are going to the Emerald Coast Cruzin in Panama City Beach.
Great job. What show are you going too in 9 days? Thanks-Ken
Thanks! Emerald Coast Cruzin in Panama City Beach FL
Awesome build, what kind of engine did you put in it? Thanks!
Thanks! It is a 302. Carbureted with a mild cam.
The light that you’re holding when you’re filling up the power steering pump I’ve got the same one, the engine sounds great, what mufflers did you use I know I watched that video when you installed the exhaust system but it’s been so long ago? I went with the James Duff exhaust system
Thanks, I used the James Duff exhaust too but had to modify it a bit. I used 40 series Flowmasters on it.
@@JasonJonieBuilds thank you for letting me know, I got the magna flow mufflers with my exhaust system from Duff’s
@@nickefgen9219 I was Jonie's request to use the Flowmasters. We had Cherry Bomb mufflers at first.
@@JasonJonieBuilds I like the sound of the flow masters much better the the cherry bomb’s
Looks and sounds great! Could you say whether you tapped into existing tail wires for the reverse lights after the pdrl on the trans, or ran new wires to the rear bumper? My 4r70w has a Us shift controller and I wasn't sure if back feeding pdrl would cause problems. Thanks.
Thomas I can only speak from the AOD side. I backfed the reverse lights from the output side of the trans switch. It is a direct link to the lights. The neutral/park side doesn't have any link to the reverse side of the switch on the AOD. I hope this helps.
@@JasonJonieBuilds
Thanks so much. No link to trans internals I assume them. Computers and me scare me, haha
@Thomas Horgan The AOD I used is not electronic, so there was no issue there.
Awesome work you guys!!!! It sounds amazing!!!
Thanks Gus!
Probably better to not look underneath, anyway that doesn't look like break in oil ?
Lol.. Not sure about the oil. I may have changed it I just don't remember.
